you will save money.
The effort to . increase the President
of the United States' salary from 50,000
to $100,000 should meet with success.
A man lug enough to be at the head of
the greatest nation in the world is sure
ly entitled to a salary sufficiently lar(,e
to enable him to maintain the position
the office forces upon him.

After more than three weeks spent iu
tlie consideration of the ease of Judge
Swayne the senate lias decided he is
not guilty. Judge Swayue it is said has
I0t been nervous about the result from
the beginning and he doubtless feels
now that the senate is indebted to him
fcr having acted as the boulder on the
track to prevent legislation on other
and more embarnssiug subjects.
